"I believe in you."Yuanshisian gently touched An's hand, writing four characters in the palm of her hand."Open your eyes slowly. Don't worry."Yun An'an told Yuan Si Nian that everything didn't need to...:

"Cloud Maiden, is your home in the Northern Star Country"

"Yun girl, are you still going to Beichen Country to look for someone"

"Cloud Maiden..."

Ap always has all sorts of questions coming up.

If it weren't for Apu's kind heart and diligence, Yun An'an would have sent him to heaven right there.

"Be quiet."

App, riding in the carriage, keenly sensed Yun An'an's anger and immediately shut his mouth.

"Cloud Maiden!"

Tentatively, Ap pointed to the town in the distance.

"We're staying in An Su town today. Is there anything you want to eat I'll go prepare it right now."

"Randomly."

Night, pervading the heavens and earth.

The carriage stopped in front of an inn in An'sù Town. Apu tied the carriage to the stable and then took care of everything.

looked like a seasoned old butler.

"Miss Yun, your room is in the second-floor elegant suite. I will go tell the kitchen to prepare dinner now."

During this time, Ap also became clear about Yun An'an's food preferences.

Often when Yun An An lost her appetite, she would make a bowl of oil noodle soup.

In a little while, Apu came and put the dishes and rice on the table.

"Yun girl, dinner is ready. Today I prepared steamed rice noodles with meat, couplet box, a serving of cold dish, and a bowl of egg flower soup. The main course is oil-boiled noodles."

As Apu turned to leave, Yun An'an threw a bead into his arms.

"Take this to exchange for money, there's a prescription on the table."

When Yun'an an came out, she didn't bring any money, only some beads.

But a single bead can be exchanged for hundreds of thousands, even millions, of gold and silver.

"Would Miss Yun like to try some other snacks An'Su town's street food is renowned throughout the land."

Seeing that Yun An didn't respond, Apu shrugged and left the room, returning the beads and going to get the medicine according to the prescription.

After a few bites, the food lost its taste.

Standing up, Yun Anan came to the balcony on the second floor. She leaned half against the railing and watched the crowds of people coming and going on the street.

People wore bright clothes, women painted delicate makeup, and every face was filled with a happy and shy smile of summer.

Oh, by the way!

Today is July 7th, the Qixi Festival.

Boom~~~

Boom~~~~

Brilliant fireworks blossom in the night sky, their colorful lights reflecting on everyone's faces.

At this time, from the streets near the inn, bursts of clamor rose and fell.

A carriage moved slowly along, and the women surrounding it screamed and shouted, wishing they could rush forward and tear the man inside to pieces.

"Master Yu Heng, look here, Master Yu Heng, I love you."

"Yu Heng, the best in the world, we love you."

A throng surged forward, the women chanting slogans in unison. Some were so overcome with excitement that they fainted.

The carriage came to a slow stop. The man inside stood up, his handsome features like jade making the surrounding women cry out in amazement.

"So handsome, to be able to see Yu Heng Gongzi's face with my own eyes, I feel like my life is worth it!"

"Ahhhh!! Gongzi Yu Heng is looking at me, she's looking at me, I'm so happy."

"Pfft, Young Master Yu Heng was looking at me, you go away."

"You're the one who should get lost, Young Master Yu Heng was clearly looking at me. You want to fight but can't."

From chasing stars to literary and martial arts, from a few women fighting each other to a group battle.

The handsome young man on the carriage did not try to stop them, instead he watched with interest the women fighting for him.

Yun'an lay lazily against the railing on the second floor of the inn in the distance.

A gentle breeze rustled through her long, crimson hair and the white veil that covered her eyes. This sight was witnessed by Jiang Yu Heng.

Unexpectedly, such a small town like An Su had someone so exquisite. Her quiet and serene appearance was in stark contrast to this group of vulgar people… No, the two were simply incomparable.

No longer paying attention to the women wrestling, Jiang Yu Heng signaled the driver to drive forward.

"The night is long, and it's rather dull for a young lady to be alone. This humble one, Jiang Yu Heng, has a bit of skill with music. Perhaps I could play a tune for you"

Jiang Yu Heng smirked, thinking he looked handsome. His long, narrow eyes narrowed at the corners as he looked at Yun An An with an electric gaze.

But...in response to Jiang Yu Heng, there was only silence.

"May I have the honor of inviting you, Miss, to take a boat ride with me"

Ginger Yu Heng asked again, but he still received silence.

This could make the group of female fans behind him go crazy.

What does this mean

Isn't that shameless

He, Yu Heng, has kindly invited you to go boating. You pretend not to care and ignore him completely. Do you think you are a celestial fairy above all else

You despicable wretch, you look like you're going to die young anyway. Shamelessly flirting with men, I want them to find out who this shameless woman is and ruin her reputation!

Yun An'an did not respond to Jiang Yu Heng's invitation. On the one hand, because these people were like ants in her eyes, the most important reason was... Yun An'an fell asleep.

Because the white veil covered her eyes, outsiders couldn't tell if Yun Anan was opening or closing them.

"This young lady..."

When Jiang Yuheng opened his mouth again, Apu, who had just returned from buying medicine, hurriedly stepped forward and covered his mouth. His expression could not be described with just the word "fear".

"We mustn't wake up Miss Yun, she's asleep."

"Apu gestured for Jiang Yu Heng to be quiet, not wanting to wake Yun An An from her sleep. Then, he picked up the medicine and tiptoed towards the bed, carefully covering Yun An An with a blanket."

Though they were on the same ship sailing at sea, their opportunities to meet were rare. He didn't know much about Yun Anan's habits and ways.

Since he became a coachman, during this period of getting along, he became clear about many of Yun An'an's flaws.

For example, Yun An'an would suffer from a cold toxin attack every seven days, requiring medication to suppress the frost.

For example, Yun An'an has difficulty falling asleep, but once she falls asleep and is woken up, the consequences will be unimaginable.

But…

"You wretch, young master Yu Heng invited you to go boating with him out of courtesy. Ignoring him is a direct insult to his dignity and you should kneel down and apologize!"

"That's right, if you don't kneel down and apologize today, this won't be over."

The female fan group, relying on their large numbers, insisted that Yun An an apologize before they would stop.

It's said it's for Young Master Yu Heng's dignity, but in reality, it's just because they feel unbalanced.

Why is she able to receive an invitation from Master Yu Heng, but they can't

And then, out of nowhere, a cabbage came flying towards Yun An'an directly.

Seeing the cabbage about to smash into Yun An'an's red hair, Apu widened her eyes and flew forward, wanting to act as a 'shield' in an instant. However, when the silver light flashed, she immediately stopped.

Yun Anan, who had originally fallen asleep, got up. He held a razor-sharp horizontal sword in his hand, and the cold air emanating from him gradually spread outwards.

The cabbage had been reduced to scattered limbs strewn across the ground.

Next second, only to see the white-clothed red-haired Yun An'an leaped from the second floor, her figure appearing in the crowd at an extremely fast speed. With a terrible scream echoing, a severed hand appeared in everyone's sight.

"Cloud Maiden, please, don't kill!"

Apu clumsily jumped down from the second-floor balcony. Just as Yun An'an was about to strike the woman who was throwing cabbages at her on the forehead, Apu stepped forward a few steps to stop Yun An'an's excitement.

"You've already chopped off her hand, there's no need to take her life now."

"If she had thrown something other than cabbages, what if it were a poisoned weapon"

Through the white veil, Yun An'an's red eyes were colder than ever.

"Cloud Maiden, you are so magnanimous, unlike these people. I bought you a lot of snacks."

The secret recipe fried rabbit meat in An Su Town is exceptional, but it gets hard when it cools down, and the flavor diminishes greatly.

"I bought you some Qinggan oranges. An'su town is most famous for its Qinggan oranges, they are so sweet."

Ap understands that, including himself, everyone in the eyes of Yun An'an is insignificant like an ant. He has witnessed the terrifying reach of Yun An'an and, to prevent her from going on a killing spree, Ap uses as many idioms as he can to describe things as delicious.

It obviously worked.

Sheathed her blade, Yun An'an’s eyes lost the instant of murderous intent.

This time I'll let you off, but if there's a next time, there will be no mercy.

Every word, uttered with no emotion whatsoever, sent chills down my spine. The woman with the severed hand forgot even to cry out in pain, her eyes filled only with boundless terror.

Back at the inn, looking at the table piled high with snacks, Yun An took a green citron and gave it a light sniff.

"Miss Yun, the skin has been peeled and all the white silk removed."

Apu peeled open the grapefruit carefully, and painstakingly removed every white pith. He then arranged each segment on a plate and carried it to Yun An'an's face.

Then carefully removed the rabbit bones, piling the meat on a plate and mixing it again with the marinade.

All in all, the service was impeccable.

"What is the Cloud Maiden looking at"

Apu looked at himself, then at Yun An'an, puzzled by why she was looking at him like that.

After a moment, Yun An'an finally spoke.

"Have you washed your hands"

Hearing this, Apu let out a sigh of relief.

He still thought he had done something wrong.

"Don't worry, Yun Nv. I washed it thoroughly."

A brilliant smile bloomed on his face, Apu wiggled his ten fingers, assuring them it was harmless and had no side effects.

"Oh, by the way~~ Yun girl gave me a total of 300,000 taels for the beads, buying medicine cost 300 taels, and snacks cost 3 taels."

Apu meticulously calculated the expenses, while Yun'an listened to Apu's grumbling and ate the rather unappetizing snacks.

"This money is definitely enough for us to go to Beichen Kingdom."

He wouldn't even dare dream of having this much money, thirty thousand taels.

After a satisfying meal, Yun An an got up and wiped the sauce from her mouth. Turning back to enter the inner room of the pavilion, she told Apu that she had been tricked.

"Got tricked"

Why

"Generally, tears of a merfolk in good condition cost over 500,000 taels. The tears you're selling are of middling quality, starting at one million taels."

"Starting at one million!!"

At the moment he heard "a starting price of one million," Apu was struck dumb like a bolt from the blue.

One million minus three hundred thousand equals seven hundred thousand, he was cheated of seven hundred thousand...

Even if you sold him, you wouldn't be able to buy seventy taels, let alone seventy thousand.

"Cloud maiden, I... have I caused trouble!"

"No rush, you can live for at least fifty more years. Take your time to pay it back."

As the last rays of sunlight illuminated Ap's expression, which was as still as a wooden chicken, Yun Anan, for once in a blue moon, cracked a joke. from Water Margin.When it came to the joke about Dalang taking medicine, she only felt Beichen Yi tighten his grip on her hand, a bone-chilling coldness gradually spreading.Not only that, but the vei...
